WR in the first would boil my blood. Sadiq is a good idea and hope and pray Anthony Hill is there in the second. This is a heavy LB draft, they can get a good linebacker in the second or third. Nose tackle is low key a huge need with Robinson gone. Super bummer he’s gone, good leader and solid player. Big hole to fill. 

Man idk I would be happy with Hill at 19 tbh

Made a few posts about it. Short version is we need to turn our OL over and get some rookie contracts in play.
 

We can get the tackle money down now, and get ready to do it with the guards in a couple of years. When the tackles get expensive.

What fans don't understand when they hear "BPA" is that what it really means is the "BPA for OUR team" which factors in things like the needs of the roster, scheme fit, etc. Every GM is going to claim that the player he drafted was the BPA. It's nit like you're gonna have one step to the podium and say "Listen, I know we passed up on better talent but damn y'all, we were desperate for a *insert position here*" even though it's very obvious rhats exactly whats happening with some picks in every draft.

When it is our pick, it is highly possible that BPA could be any number of players.  Considering all BPA players available i think LT is probably the biggest need. We are extremely thin at that position and injuries on the O-Line can kill a season especially LT.  

We'll see.

I don’t want to give OP too much crap. My counter point would be that most of those positions we absolutely take if we felt the BPA was there.

We’d 100% draft Mendoza. QB isn’t in play because no one thinks Simpson will be BPA.

RB Isn’t in play because Love will be gone and everyone else is a R2 prospect 

No C is in play for R1. OT and G are interesting. Not sure Ioane will be there. Some have him as a top 10 prospect, others not as much. At OT I think Mauigoa would be the pick but will be gone. Not sure how Freeling or Fano are viewed. 
 

again tho Edge isn’t in contention because the ones worth drafting will be gone. At CB I think we’d consider Delane as BPA if he slipped.

I would love for the Panthers to drop back a few spots, obtain an extra pick and draft DT Kayden McDonald (20-25) to shore up the line with Derrick Brown and get Rodriguez in the second round. Also as for the rest of Free agency, I hope Dan gives a call to Keenan Allen as he's 1st down machine and trades XL.

I think DT would be an excellent place to invest. And ditto for Rodriguez or another compliment to Lloyd. 
We could set this defense up right this year. 
 

But if a left tackle of merit is there in the 1st or even our future RT is in the 2nd I have to be practical. That is a major impending issue on the field and in the pocketbook and has to be addressed.

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
